Stan sent word that there was 9 minutes and 58 seconds of in-ring action on this past Thursday's TNA iMPACT, down from 21 minutes and 18 seconds on the previous week.
The backstage morale after this past week's iMPACT tapings was very low. People in TNA are down on the company's direction more than ever.
Wrestlers in TNA are under the impression that Jeff Hardy will be brought back as a babyface soon. No one expects him to be fired

I'm so glad that TNA stands for Total Non-Stop Action and there was 10 minutes of action on a 2 hour show! Another lie straight from Dixie Carter!

Despite the lack of actual wrestling, I liked this past episode. I thought Bubba did a great job with his promo, setting himself up a legit big time player (for the short term, at least) and I thought the back and forth between Hogan and Sting was okay as well. Finally, Bubba attacking AJ at the end of the show was great.

Agreed. I was surprised that there's was less than 10 minutes of action, because usually with TNA when there's so many promos and such, it's crap, but they pulled off that episode relatively well. I thought Bubba really got over and this may be a good role for him.

Assuming they lack the balls to fire his ass, bringing him back as a babyface may well be the only chance they have to salvage anything with him. I figure if they bring him back, they put his whole heel turn off on 'demons', brought on by Hogan and Bischoff leading him down a bad road. After that, all his little teenybopper fans can go back to adoring him, he can go back to doing swanton bombs without having to beat us to death with his awful lack of promo skills.

If they do bring Hardy back they have to bring him back as a face to try and con some of the shall we say "more gullible" fans into thinking everything is fine and dandy.
Silly

face Hardy = money
If Kenpachi used his Bankai, Armageddon, Ragnarok, and every other form of the apocalypse would march from the depths of hell with their demonic legions of death.... then take one look at him and turn tail and run.

Actually they do. Apart from the fuck-up that was the PPV (which Bischoff himself said they weren't interested in doing) they are doing better than they were. Better attendances and more money Originally Posted by Vick Diesel

I actually feel ok with where TNA is going right now. I mean, they've got some good storylines in place, they're pushing some new people (Gunnar winning the TV Belt was cool to see) and they seem to be doing okay attendance-wise with their road shows. Other than Hardy being a complete idiot, I'd say things are looking up for TNA. Originally Posted by Vick Diesel
